Unicode String in Python
Normal strings in Python are stored internally as 8-bit ASCII, while Unicode strings are stored as 16-bit Unicode. This allows for a more varied set of characters, including special characters from most languages in the world. I'll restrict my treatment of Unicode strings to the following −
Example
#!/usr/bin/python print u'Hello, world!'
Output
When the above code is executed, it produces the following result −
Hello, world!
As you can see, Unicode strings use the prefix u, just as raw strings use the prefix r.
